Mitigation Measures:
1. The project shall comply with the recommendations of the geotechnical report, prepared by Migizi Group,
Inc, dated September 26, 2022, and any updated report(s) associated with the building and construction
permits to ensure compliance with the intent of the initial reports.
2. The applicant’s geotechnical engineer shall review the project’s construction and building permit plans to
verify compliance with the geotechnical reports. The geotechnical engineer shall submit a sealed letter
stating that they reviewed the construction and building permits and in their opinion the plans and
specifications meet the intent of the reports.
3. The applicant shall submit an Inadvertent Discoveries Plan prepared by a qualified professional with the
civil construction permit for review and approval by the Current Planning Project Manager prior to permit
issuance.
4. The applicant shall sample soil for arsenic and lead following 2019 Tacoma Smelter Plume Guidance. If
lead or arsenic are found at concentrations above the Model Toxics Control Act (MCTA) cleanup level,
construction workers and employees on site shall be notified of their occurrence.
The City of Renton Environmental Review Committee has determined that probable significant environmental impacts
from the proposed project can be mitigated. An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required under RCW
43.21C.030(2)(c). Conditions were imposed as mitigation measures by the Environmental Review Committee under
their authority of Section 4-9-070D Renton Municipal Code. These conditions are necessary to mitigate environmental
impacts identified during the environmental review process. Because other agencies of jurisdiction may be involved,
the lead agency will not act on this proposal for fourteen (14) days.
